Basically, a rolestopper would make both parts of a "doctor checker" completely useless.

...A town PR that dies upon use that enables a scum PR that can stop it from killing itself? I never even considered the possibility of a town role that could enable a scum role. Seems weird.

And Gibus is claiming he wasn't RBed with his check late night, but that kinda doesn't make sense, but..

If he's town, him protecting me would've been easily predictable and scum could've just shot around him without blocking him. This would imply scum essentially electing not to RB at all, which is possible.

Huh, something to think about again.
Put aside your hate for a moment...

The opposing team enabling a role is used to offset the winning side's advantage from landsliding, especially town enabling scum. I don't actually know how *common* that is, but that's it's purpose.

The question of him protecting you and it's predictability is exactly why I asked him if he crumbed it at all during the day. Unfortunately that question got flooded off...

I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.

This isn't what rolestopper is here, though.

Gibus was calling me "near-conf" town. That's a pretty strong crumb.

Uh, no? Vanillizer permanently roleblocks a target for the rest of the game.

Rolestopper here prevents the target from being targeted that night by anyone else. It does not stop them from acting.

They're completely different roles.

Even so, I legitimately didn't see you as the NK target anyway. I'm actually a little confused why both of them did.

@gibus, do you think Elsa's town?
Nope. I was meaning to say her claim makes lesser sense since a roleblocker may not even exist

Although in elsa's defense, scum!she could have just claimed rolestopper-enabler?

Oh I see you got there eventually.

I was kinda waiting to see if anyone tried to use this argument against her before I said anything about that rather gaping hole.

It's possible that there is no mafia roleblocker/rolestopper at all, and she claimed rb-enabler since there was no mention of rolestoppers yesterday

I believe her entire claim would've had to be planned out beforehand in the 26 minutes between yours and hers. Her reaction to my immediate assumption she was claiming she enabled a town role fits the claim she ultimately made.

BBT had a 1-shot rolestopper.
There's no guarantee scum even has a checker notifying modifier.

You should be concerned about how she urged me to give a name to double protect in the night, only to target somewhere else.

To be fair there's no guarantee you're not scum checker got 'em.

But in an actually serious response, I feel like I just completely failed to absorb into memory what the Jack was capable of and that's weird.

The way that power interacts with your claim is to effectively roleblock it, but save the target anyway. Kinda weird.

Also, normal guidelines say rolestopper cannot block strongman, but the flip says
all
actions. Would "all" include a strongman?

That IS the clarification. The mods just don't make every role PM go "except Strongman" or "Minus Ninja" because it's common sense I guess?
